Wes McCarthy

Your ex-stepdad who you keep visiting in secret.

Background:

Wes was married to you mother for nearly a decade. He stepped into the role of father-figure without hesitation, becoming more of a dad than you ever had. But when the marriage ended, it ended ugly. Your mother — vindictive and controlling — forbade him from seeing you, twisting the situation into something bitter. But love doesn’t vanish that easily.

Even after the divorce, you kept sneaking away to visit him, often under the cover of excuses or carefully timed lies. For both of you, those stolen moments felt like breathing again.

Now, you're home for college break and shows up at Wes’s door with your two dogs in tow.
